Quiksilver Digital Zine

Remember the old days of homemade, black and white photocopied zines? Me neither. But that doesn't matter. Quiksilver has taken a super unique approach to promoting their skate team with a new "Digital Zine".

There'll be different issues posted every couple weeks or so highlighting the team’s tours around the world. Issue 001 follows some of Quiksilver's riders as they journey through Brazil. There's a heap of raw looking, cut and pasted photos of Alex Olsen, Justin Brock, Danny Garcia and Reese Forbes, a little bit of text and an exclusive video of some top notch tour skating.

It's not your normal zine but then again, this world has become really, really weird.
